Which matches what it should be. MCD should be at .20

FYI -  Had the tech show me on other MCD what exactly he did. It's shockingly easy to do.  Go to
LAN/WAN configuration. Click on Layer 2 Switch. In the right side bottom window will be a split area, which is labled "L2 ports". There are two listed of course for your 2 10/100 ports.  Click on button "change member" which will open a new window and have Port 1 selected. There are different options listed such as "State" (enabled/disabled) "speed" (auto) "duplex mode" (auto), "flow control" (auto), and the most important one "voice vlan" (untagged/tagged/no).  Instead of changing tagged to untagged, he clicked on "disabled" option for State.

Silly question but have you tried connecting to the second ethernet port?

I'm baffled.  There has to be a command line option to re-enable.
Have you reached out to Mitel yet?

Let us know what the final fix is.
This is something I'll need to add to my notes.

Great question - and yes we did connect the 2nd ethernet port, and nothing.  It seems like it should have worked, given that there are two ports and two options (under L2 ports to disable).  I had the tech contact Mitel and (of course) part of their system was down so they were not able to open a ticket, and they were supposed to call us back.  I did open a TechCentral ticket tho.  We were a bit pressed for time, so I made the call to re-install MCD and restore the system. It took about 15 minutes for the install/restore and all is well again.  I am really curious to try the 2nd ethernet port again (somehow!). Looking back perhaps we missed something.  I'll post whatever we get back from Mitel.

Just as a follow up, Mitel confirmed there is no vxworks command to turn on the Layer 2 switch ports. However, Mitel says this issue was fixed in versions >  11.0.1.10 as you cannot turn off port 1.   Even though it looks like you can (it should be greyed out).
